Oh, can I call you Jim?

BBrooks

James L. Brooks is good. How about some spongecake?

Ned

Well, I can't see the harm.

BBrooks

With a brandy glaze?

Ned

Noooo!!

BBrooks

Or perhaps you like to go to a football game?

Ned

Well--

BBrooks

We don't have a team.

NFNed Flanders/Sir Thomas More

[to Homer/Henry VIII] Divorce! Well, there's no such thing in the Cath-diddly-atholic Church! But it's the only church we got, so what are you gonna do?

HHHomer/Henry VIII

I'll start my own church!

NFNed Flanders/Sir Thomas More

Whaaaaaaaa!?

HHHomer/Henry VIII

Yes, my own church. Where divorce will be so easy, more than half of all marriages will end in it!

NFNed Flanders/Sir Thomas More

Your Majesty, I work for the Pope, and I think a celibate Italian weirdo knows a lot more about marriage than you.

Ned has shot Homer, who wobbles back and forth and finally falls next to the core destruct button.

Ned

[sighs in relief]

Homer's tongue flops on to the button and presses it.

Ned

Oh, you stupid son of a--

Springfield explodes. Ned and Homer are sent to Heaven behind the gate.

Homer, I'm so mad at you. I bet you blew up the town just to get out cleaning the garage! Yeah, Well, the joke's on you, smart guy, the garage made it to Heaven too!

[the garage now has wings and a halo]

Mr. Flanders, why are you moving?

Flanders

Cause I had a vision of myself... shooting your father.

In this neighborhood, who hasn't?

Well, you can't fight fate, but if you must shoot our father, please remember our family motto: "Not in the face."

[While they ride to Canada] Homer! Tell Mr. Ned to stop trying to convert me!

Ned

I was just telling him how brave he is to worship a false god.

I do not worship one god, okay? I worship a whole super team of deities that--[Ned pinches him] OW, ow! Okay, he just pinched me!

Ned

Well, where's your super team now?

Listen, you two! I'll tell you who the true God is if you're both quiet the rest of the trip!

[simultaneously]

But the infinite...

Ned

But the Bible says...

All right, I'm coming back there! [Unbuckles seatbelt and leaves driver's wheel to go to the back seat. The van swerves uncontrollably through traffic]

Save me, Shiva!

Ned

Why don't you just call for Hawkman?

Why don't you shut up?!
